These look like really cool things to do when you are in Dubai. I am sure I would love seeing all of the different architecture that they have there. And I have heard about the frozen amusement park that would definitely require a visit.

Dubai is one place I have been wanting to visit for so long. Every year I make plans but something or the other happens and the plans go in vain. I hope I can visit Dubai next year as your post is really inspiring me to go there. 😀

Dubai is our favorite destination in middle east. It’s the land of technology, architectural wonders, shopping and others. This post gives us good knowledge about the main Dubai attractions and more. Thanks a lot for the writing.

I feel in love with Dubai while watching “sex and the city” .. I could imagine walking in the desert wearing a long silk gown, because all I could think was sands, camels and deserts … Your post gave a wider and more beautiful version of Dubai in my brain now 🙂

As if I needed more excuses to want to go to Dubai! You did a nice job providing me seven more, and I appreciate how thoroughly you went over each of the seven aspects. It’s one of those places I just need to get, and sooner rather than later!

I went to Dubai this year. I liked the old Dubai more as it had a bit of local culture. Bur Dubai was full of Indians and Asian migrants. The tall buildings were impressive. Isn’t Dubai just one of its kind.

You are absolutely right in saying that Dubai is for all ages and there is something to do for everyone. I haven’t been there for a while now, and as is the nature of Dubai, it has changed so dramatically to add many new activities and attractions. I can’t wait to go to Legoland with the kids and of course enjoy more of Dubai’s culinary offerings.

This is a great post that covers everything! I loved the architecture in dubai, it’s really unique and loved photographing it. it’s landscape and nature too. The part I liked the most was venturing out into the desert and watching the sun set along with some camels, it was quite the experience!
